I haps you do not k1 nv the story.
: 11 is a very old one
From the beginning of time the
tree we Know as the redbud tret
had borne each spring lovely
wind blossoms, as delicate and
sheer as the clouds in the Spring
time sky And everyone who
walked along the roadside com
j men ted on then virginal and cut
el f.oeat branch-’S to carry home.
No flower in all the world was
more sought after for festive de
i or ations But mi1 spring there
was a great traged>
A man named Judas Iscariot be
trayed his friend to his enemies
for a measly sum of money, and
his friend was condemned to die.
Then Judas, when he saw that he
was condemned, repented himself
and brought again the thirty j
pieces of silver to the chief priests j
and elders, saying, "1 have sinned i
ir. that I have betrayed innocent
blood.”
■'rod they laughed .at him and
;aid,
'What is that t" us" You worry
ibout that
So he cast down the pieces of
silver on the floor of the temple
and ran away; for he was very
desperate, and went out into the
Woods and hanged himself.
H< did not know that it was a
warm April day, lie did not know
that the birds were singing ’and
that everywhere the wild flowers
were pushing their heads up to
ward the sun Nor did he know
that it was beneath th< wild
branches of the lovely, whitt bios
som tree that he tore his cloak in
strips and made it into a rope
with which hr hanged himself, lie
only kr.ew that lv had no desire,
to live any long r It is a great '
wa ng to betray a friend and a I
great sin to be i greedy for1
money.
Judas swayed incongruously!

Tin average American is na

Therefore, the U S. public must

And to this day some call it the I

but no one has called it the white
